Two Hopkins County teachers were among the math and science teachers across the Northeast Texas region honored recently by Region 8 Education Service Center and Texas Regional Collaborative for their service as TRC mention teachers.

Miller Grove sixth grade teacher Callie Glover and Saltillo fifth grade teacher Tammie White were honored at Region 8 ESC in Pittsburg for being mentors during the 2013-14 school year.

As a member of this collaborative, each teacher completed more than 100 hours of professional development in the past eight months.

“Please help us in congratulating [them] on going above and beyond normal requirements to help our students meet their educational challenges,” Tina Immel with Region 8 noted in a press release Thursday.

In addition to recognition from the TRC, the teachers also received recognition from US Sen. John Cornyn’s office, State Sen. Robert Deuell’s office and State Rep. Dan Flynn’s office.
